I'm back again....just listened to Simon du Voil’s song, Magnificat, as recommended by Kate Drinkwater in this thread. I found a nice version where Simon gives an intro to the song. Clearly, this is a religious song, based on the Song of Mary, but it really is beautiful. Here is the link, if you are interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eOETJlBtv8
“You have gifts.
The world needs your gifts.
You must deliver them.”
Amen 🙏
Hoist the sails!

Wow
Greg's poem and Johannes’s photo are even more stunning coupled together.
The poem reminds me of my friend, Simon du Voil’s beautiful song Magnificat.
The hungry will come and that’s how we’ll know to give away our cargo. So simply and eloquently stated.
Thanks for the song reference, Kate—I'll check it ou!
OG Spirit
thank you for my gifts
OG Spirit
thank you for those who are hungry
May we meet at the shore.
And may the landing be easy . . .
Bowing, Phyllis, to all the Cargo that YOU give away/ pass along, delivering blessing 💕
Oh, thank you, dear one! I surely have fun doing it!
Oh, I LOVE this poem! It feels right, though I feel convicted somehow when I read it: "Have I forgotten my mission?" Such a terrifying thought....
A gentle nudge, my ever-apologizing friend: How might you reframe that feeling of "conviction" to empower yourself rather than terrify?
I need to give it time and hope that my motivation returns. Maybe with the spring as things warm up?

Thankee, my ever-resourceful friend!
"You enter life a ship laden with meaning, purpose and gifts
sent to be delivered to a hungry world."
Very figurative writing. Makes you think of yourself as a fully loaded ship ready to embark on a journey. Great imagery!
Methinks your ship is quite laden . . .
